About Daegon Charts
Daegon Charts is an independent music-ranking project built to preserve weekly chart history in a consistent, searchable format. The site follows songs, albums and artists over time and records how each entry moves from week to week, including rank, last-week position, peak, total chart weeks and weeks spent at number one.
The project exists because music history is more useful when it can be explored as a continuous timeline rather than as isolated lists. A single chart week can show what was popular at one moment; a long-running archive can show how quickly a song rose, how long an album remained relevant, when an artist returned to the chart and how musical eras overlap.
What you can explore
- Weekly song, album and artist rankings.
- Historical chart runs for individual entries.
- New entries, re-entries, gains, declines and drop-outs.
- Peak positions, weeks charted and weeks at number one.
- Specialized views for streaming, sales and radio where available.
An original editorial project
Daegon Charts is not a mirror of one commercial chart. Its rankings, historical reconstruction, organization and presentation are part of an original editorial project. The archive is maintained with a consistent set of rules so that a week in one era can be meaningfully compared with another while still respecting the different ways people discovered and consumed music at the time.
Historical work requires judgment as well as data. Release timing, market coverage, catalog behavior, re-entries, artist-credit normalization and continuity from one week to the next all matter. The methodology page explains these principles in more detail.
Independence and attribution
Daegon Charts is an independent project and is not affiliated with Billboard, Spotify, Last.fm, record labels or other music companies. Artist names, song titles, album titles and artwork remain the property of their respective owners. Artwork and metadata may be retrieved from public music services or APIs for identification and informational presentation.
Ongoing archive
The archive is continuously reviewed. Historical records may be corrected when better source information becomes available, when duplicate artist credits are identified or when continuity errors are found. The goal is to maintain a coherent record whose changes can be explained by the same methodology.
